2.0L GTDI Police sedans equipped
with the P235/55R18 99H tire can
switch to the Police Interceptor
sedan 245/55R18 103V tire if
desired. All of the tires (including
the spare) need to be replaced if
the change is being made. The
original equipment tire size is
located on the Safety Compliance
Certification Label (affixed to
either the door hinge pillar,
door-latch post, or the door edge
that meets the door-latch on the
B-pillar, or on the edge of the
driver’s door. The 245/55R18 tire
will use the same Ford
recommended tire inflation
pressure as the P235/55R18 tire,
found on the Safety Compliance
Certification Label.
In regions with snow and ice
during the winter months,
installation of snow tires may be
desirable. Snow tires will usually
exhibit a drop in dry pavement
handling, but may show an
increase in snow and ice traction.
When snow tires are used, they
should be installed on all four
wheels, never on the drive wheels
only.
Tire storage
Most high performance tires are
made with a nylon overlay. As
such, the following steps should
be taken to avoid flatspotting
when the vehicles are not used for
a period of time.
• Fleets should store the vehicles
with 44 psi (303 kPa) in the
tires.
• If the vehicle is stored for
periods longer than 30 days,
you should move it several feet
at least once during each
30-day period, so that a
different portion of the tread
contacts the ground.
• Tire pressure should be
reduced to the recommended
pressure shown on the vehicle
certification label before the
vehicle is placed back into
service.
USING SNOW CHAINS
WARNINGS
If you choose to install snow tires on
your vehicle, they must be the same
size, construction, and load range as
the original tires listed on the tire placard,
and they must be installed on all four
wheels. Mixing tires of different size or
construction on your vehicle can adversely
affect your vehicle's handling and braking,
and may lead to loss of vehicle control.
Do not use snow chains or cables on
this vehicle as they may cause
damage to your vehicle which may
lead to loss of vehicle control.
Snow chains have not been approved for
use on your vehicle.
The original equipment tires on your vehicle
may have an all-weather tread design to
provide traction, handling, and braking
performance in year-round driving. You
may install snow tires for improved traction
when driving in areas with sustained
periods of snow or icy driving conditions.
